I think that he's better than Vacarro and most likely can get him in the 2nd. Sill think Elam is best safety in the draft. But, Cyprien is very much under the radar IMO. If he was at a bigger school than FIU, he would be talked about much more. Could be one of the bigger steals in the draft if he falls to the 2nd, which I think he will. Safety is a weird spot when it comes to the draft.

He's tall and athletic and will probably be in the olympics one day, but he doesn't look like a football player. He looks stiff and upright. Like the NFL version of Adam Morrison. He's tall and blocks kicks. Besides that I'm not too impressed.

Also, he is already 25 years old. If we draft him, he becomes the oldest lineman we have besides Will Smith and Bunkley and he's already older than JJ Watts, Von Miller and Aldon Smith.

worst idea ever. i tried so hard to sell myself on him, couldn't do it.

It's not the worst idea ever, we routinely blow on our first round defensive choices anyway and most of the guys we would want are going to be gone by the time we pick. Trade back and get an extra pick regardless of who the first round pick is.

And with our lack of defensive playmakers, Margus Hunt could be a guy that energizes the defense.

I didn't know he was that old which wouldn't be a problem if he had experience in football. I just heard he kicked arse in the combine after demolishing the opponent in the bowl game and June Jones saying he was the best athlete he had ever had.

Why? He's not anything to get excited about.

He was in the Junior Olympics and still participated in track. He's a big dude and is strong and has in-line speed. Great athlete in those respects. But his agility is lacking and he plays upright and he's old and new to football.
